Summary
1990. Please write and tell me why you should live here. Toby Dobbs received a big Victorian house with too many bedrooms to count as a wedding present from his father, but his marriage is over within a month. Very alone, and very lonely, Toby posts an advertisement seeking the Unexpectedly Alone to become his roommates. Fifteen years later, the wayward souls he takes in are still living with him, with no intention of leaving. 2004. Please tell me how I can convince you to move out. Toby Dobbs has met Leah Pilgrim from across the road, and they're falling in love. But before they can begin a new life together, Toby and Leah must help Toby's house of sweet slackers and lovelorn misfits grow up, solve their problems, and set themselves free. But can their new relationship survive the test?

I was soooo disappointed with this book. I love Lisa Jewell and this book was just SO anticlimactic. It was so boring and I held hope through the end and was like wow this is it. Waste of time for sure!

The book is fun and the character Toby is hilarious although he does not mean to be. Narrator is great with accents.

This was such a nice change of a story than I usually listen to. The story is "gentle", this is not a "who dunnit", it is just a compilation of characters who all have very different characters from each other, some with flaws and who all succeed, in the end, in changing their lives. An early Lisa Jewell work and one worth listening to if you want to decelerate your listening experience. The narrator is a total professional and was excellent.

I thought this would be a thriller like her other books, it is not. Terribly boring, had to stop after wasting 2 hours of my life

It was terrible and the narrator kept gross swallowing throughout.

Profile Avatar Mary B. Aug 2024

I loved this book, but it took a while to get to that point. It's a sweet story with interesting characters. It was a nice change from the murder mysteries I usually like. I'd love a sequel!

The narration was absolutely brilliant! Not what I expected but once I adjusted my expectations, I absolutely loved this story and its characters.

Profile Avatar Barbara N. Jul 2024

I enjoyed the story, but wish the characters were better described. Information on all characters was shallow at best.
